About this book
This impressive omnibus brings together three of the most celebrated science fiction novels ever written.
Frank Herbert’s richly imagined and sweeping saga unfolds on the desert world of Arrakis, a planet at the center of a fierce political and military conflict whose consequences extend across the galaxy.
Arrakis is the only source of spice, a powerful substance that enhances the mind and enables interstellar travel, making it the most valuable resource in existence. When Duke Atreides and his family assume control of the planet, they are caught in a deadly scheme orchestrated by their longtime enemy, Baron Harkonnen. The Duke is killed, but his wife and their son, Paul, manage to escape into the vast, unforgiving deserts that have earned Arrakis its famous name, Dune.
Finding refuge with the Fremen, the native people of Arrakis, Paul and his mother learn the ways of surviving in the planet's harsh and intricate environment. Yet survival is only the beginning, as Paul's future has been foretold for years, and his mother is determined to ensure that his destiny comes to pass.
